Bottle feeding

I just started bottle feeding (with expressed milk) and was wondering how much ML per bottle (and how many bottles) November babies drink? And do you do it on demand or on schedule. Every website says something different and I know I have to find out what’s best for us but just wondering how is works out with other babies from the same age 😀

My baby will be 5 months next week, he has 210ml of formula, 5 times a day. Roughly every 3-4 hours, we do it on demand but that’s what he seems to have settled on most recently!

With expressed breastmilk your baby needs 1-1.5oz or 30-45ml ISH per hour since last feed Babies fed exclusively on breastmilk should never need more than 4-5 ounces or 120-150ml ISH in one go

My LG has one bottle of expressed milk some evenings and will drink anywhere between 3-5oz (depending on how long it’s been since last feed) we feed on demand and usually every 2-3 hours during the day

My LO will have 130 at 3 - 3.5 hr but sometimes she will eat earlier and have less.

Expressed milk about 4 oz 120 ml x my girl is almost 5 months just changing to formula now and she drinks about 120-150 ml per feed , around 7 bottles in 24 hours

My boy is eating every 2 to 2 and the half hours between 150/180 mils I try to push him to 3/4 hours but didn’t work lol. 6 times a day but from 7ish pm till he wake up about 6:30-7:30 am he is not eating as sleeping.

My 5 month old has 210ml of expressed milk 6 times a day (usually every 3 hours)
